This is insane:
Edmonton Police authorized a *7 month* surveillance operation targeting a journalist critical of police and followed his family doing mundane things
This covert operation was supposedly necessary to determine who vandalized a statue honouring a literal WW2 Nazi

We are all better off if $170 billion is stewarded by folks without blazing political opinions. It’s not in the public interest for any of this to be politicized. #ableg

This man’s overland trip is fascinating, and reminds me of what I learned when I was in Syria/Lebanon/Iran/Nepal/India almost 20 years ago.
In particular, his account of Iran is what I also saw of the code of hospitality there.
People are not their governments. Not here, not anywhere.

Omar Nok is at the finish line of a 28,000-mile zig-zag route that began in February. Here's how he approached the adventure, without setting foot on a plane.
No planes and no 'spoilers.' How one man trekked from Egypt to Japan without flying

This was the Lethbridge Raging Grannies group in August, 2024! We gathered to sing our "Coal Mining Song." We have sang this song so many times in protesting why we do not want coal mining in our Eastern Slopes of the Rockies. That area is the source of our water! Watch for a documentary movie ...

Just so we’re clear -
Any party telling you who you can love, what gender you are, which medicine you can take, which books you can read, which history you can learn, what prayers you should pray and what you can and cannot do with your own body, doesn’t give a fuck about freedom.
